What a fantasy world we live in these days. "If we cut our emissions by x% we'll save the planet." Yeah, while other countries double and triple their output because they're making sh*t over there that we can't make over here anymore because we're too busy "saving the planet"


When will these ideological f*ckwits learn that shifting the burden does NOT make the "problem" go away.

Belle River man's net-zero home ahead of climate change plan

As Ontario rolls out a new action plan on climate change, Brent Klundert from Belle River is more than fourteen years ahead of the game with his "net zero" home.

Ontario's climate change plan, which will provide billions of dollars in subsidies and incentives to homeowners, includes switching to more energy efficient homes by installing green technology such as solar water heating, better windows and geothermal heating.

What is net zero?

His house in Belle River, built by BK Cornerstone builders, has solar panels on the roof to produce electricity for the grid, and a high efficiency heat pump to produce heating and cooling.

For temperatures colder than minus five, a natural gas furnace takes over. But this non renewable resource will eventually need to be replaced.

"There's funding that was outlined prior to the release of the plan for renewable natural gas," said Derek Coronado from the Citizens Environment Alliance.

Klundert's home in Belle River uses an estimated 30 per cent of the energy used in a regular house of the same age.

You assume way too much....

...and still don't have brains enough to realize Harpo be Federal. Windmill be province - what Ontario is....

If you're gonna be a troll, at least try to be a good one

You must really enjoy boredom because you post more in my threads than any others.

The $2bil mcwynne plans to pick annually from ontario pockets seems really ambitious considering calif's experience, spending what she does not have is not new but calling this an action plan is a huge stretch. Hiring suzuki as a pitch man to sell a phantom detailed action plan mimics mcsquintys tax dedicated to health care that somehow ended up in general revenues. Simply put imo this is just another tax grab where the green bank account will magically turn up in general revenues.

Wynne is most competent in the head game. Sad part is, the stupid are too embarrassed to admit it, so we're going to pay the price - unless somebody perforates that thick skull
